definitely preferred TTM over FP but I still quite enjoyed my time with this game. i'd recommend it to pretty much everyone who played the first one if you want another game under the same umbrella

2017

game for children why did people say this one was one of the games worth playing in that palestine pack

i could see how someone could really like it but it personally didn't resonate with me much. chad's pretty hate-able though so the game gets some points for character writing

bizzare wander sim art game. yume nikki if it was good. wonderfully eclectic in all the right ways, but by its nature there's a lot of aimless wandering which turns me away a tad. it's still pretty good though

yeah i know you could PROBABLY say i was playing it wrong since i only got 47% item completion but forgive me i dropped it near the end of noirfair like a year ago and i just wanted to go back and finish it ok

anyways i wish i didnt need a friend telling me where i should go and you didnt have to go so far out of your way to level up your shit but that's how metroidvania games work i guess. still had enough fun in the first half to warrant a 6/10 though

so you know how sonic was created in response to mario pretty much for the purpose of competing? the klonoa games are from the alternate universe where kirby got more popular than mario

ok but really the main appeal of klonoa is that it's a pretty enjoyable platformer with the story of a b-tier jrpg with the music of an s-tier one. the worst part of this game is the voice acting which doesn't really matter since it's just gibberish

probably the best 2d mario. i do like new soup ds though

default mario. i like 3 and world more

it's funny how much praise These ones in particular get just because it's the Original Tetris, like, there's so many problems here that got fixed sooo hard in later versions. Like most of them are take or leave or shit that only nerds care about (me, i care that this doesnt have a good bag system) but no hard drop is just literally unplayable lol. still glad for what it paved the way for i guess!

unflinchingly bleak.

weighed down by a story that moves a little too slowly and gets a little too boring when doing too much side content and some cumbersome point and click stuff. backtracking and loading screens and slow movement speed.

where it shines is the reactivity of the game to things that happen earlier, so many conditions are set based on so many things throughout the story; did you talk to this person 2 hours in? well 8 hours later that might help/hurt you! there are so many routes to the truth of this case and so if you get screwed over in one way, it never feels like you're never totally shit out of luck. and yet it creates this sort of world where you consider every action and cross your fingers at 50% dice rolls, because you know it will affect how things pan out.

the previously mentioned story of this game is very good also, but it takes some time to really get going. of my 25 hour playthough, at least half of that was not really that interesting, but that creates such a stark contrast when things do start happening. personally i think there are some stellar moments during the course of the game that outweigh the more uninteresting ones, but i could see how that could pose a problem to someone's enjoyment of the game. additionally i would not recommend this game to someone who doesn't want to do a lot of reading but i think that's a given, right?

as a sidenote: this game clearly is trying to say something politically but i really couldnt discern anything other than a nihilistic "every ideology sucks and everyone who follows an ideology sucks, and not having an ideology is just as bad." it certainly doesn't help that nearly everyone in martinaise is a piece of shit. Hot_Anarcocoa's review lines up pretty well with how i viewed the game politically so if you've already played the game then give that one a read

This review contains spoilers

not crazy for the writing but i liked the majima cameo

this game is like so FUcking awesome you wouldnt believe its like if you took earthbound humor and a satire of rpgmaker horror and mashed them with late 2000s 4chan ms paint scribbles and the dril tweets Where He Types Like This to make an avant garde art piece that aims soley to shit on all the bad parts of jrpgs without indulging in them too hard all while stoner rock plays in the background

with how much backtracking this 5 hour long game has you'd think it's a metroidvania

(the writing's pretty fun though, i'll give it that. definitely interested in the later ones that shouldn't be as clunky to play)

2021

not really worth playing on PC but it's probably kinda fun on mobile
